How many impaired drivers were NOT caught driving around who could have killed INNOCENT people? There out there all the time.
OPP nabs more than 700 motorists in this year's RIDE campaign
- Thread starter AndrewX
- Start date
Wonder if there is the same amount of ride checks each year?It appears they have been dropping significantly.
* 2015: 1,753
* 2016: 1,539
* 2017: 1,450
* 2018: 1,455
* 2019: 1,342
* 2022: 700'ish
GTA Impaired Driving Charges By The OPP Have Decreased Every Year Since 2015
A 23% decrease in five years.www.narcity.com
Did not see anything per the Covid years (imagine 2020 was next to zero with no one out driving...).
I wonder how many charges are borderline as some people may have had a couple of drinks and did not think they would blow over.
It would be interesting to see how many people blow way over the limit - Where they are smashed (so to speak).
I never understand this mindset. Of course it will never stop, unless we were to wrap ourselves in a complete bubble. It's on a spectrum. We can reduce it, to the point where the effort/expense incurred is exorbitant, or the freedoms it revokes too oppressive, but you can't eliminate it.
There are probably more people driving stoned than there are drunks. I see so many people toking while driving. Fucking losers.

The problem is, alcohol impairs your judgement and ability to make sound decisions. As a friend once told me, he would never consider drinking and driving when he's sober. But after a few drinks, it no longer seems like a big deal. And that's the problem. Other than the people who don't give a f*ck about anything, seemingly smart people who know drinking and driving is a very bad idea, fail to realize it once they've had a few drinks. How many times have you heard someone say, (after consuming alcohol) I'm okay to drive. Well, that's the way they feel, because they've been drinking. They only think of the consequences when they're sober.
That's why if you plan on drinking, plan to have a way home that doesn't involve driving. There is however one problem, a lot of people only plan on having one or two. But then that often leads to three, four or more and that's when the problems begin.
The really smart people plan ahead and have the ability to make an alternative plan if they've had a few or more drinks. Unfortunately, many people aren't that smart.
Something you should also be aware of, is if you've just taken a sip of vodka, scotch or some other spirits and are requested to blow right after, you may blow a warn which will lead to an immediate suspension. You haven't broken any laws, you're not legally over the limit, but the COP is judge jury and executioner. You have no legal rights to dispute the suspension. Which I say is completely unjust.
Interestingly enough, if you drank some water right before the test, you likely wouldn't blow a warn. I have done an experiment with a friend who's a COP (with his breathalyser) to prove my point. So if you have had only a drink or two, make sure you drink some water before you blow, to be on the safe side.

This study doesn't show "the criminal gene" it shows some links with slightly higher rates of ASPD.

Exactly. There have been thousands of papers showing that there is no such thing as "the criminal gene".Genetics and Crime: Integrating New Genomic Discoveries Into Psychological Research About Antisocial Behavior - PubMed

Glad we agree.
I'm not sure How about that Certainly they have different effects But Slow reflexes is slow reflexes
